My father in law has Parkinson's, and I am trying to get him something interesting to do. I have him interested in Indian Head Pennies. It is something we can afford to do. Do you have any recommendations on where to find coins? He is retired so we can't spend a lot. I have already shown him around on ebay.
Thanks

Hello,

I used to live in the Berkshires in MA. If you have ever been to Pittsfield, MA I would recommend this coin store: Berkshire Hills Coins & Estate Jewelry. The address is 222 Elm Street, Pittsfield, MA 01201. It looks like it is less than 2 hours away from you.

Pete sells IHCs in a bin for $1 each and sometimes gives deals like 12 IHCs for $10. He has a lot..... I would recommend the drive and stop at Teo's hotdog stand right nearby for some amazing hot dogs! I recommend ordering everything with extra sauce (white onion, yellow mustard, special meat sauce!). You will be hooked and sound like a local to boot. Good luck!! Let me know how it goes.

Attempt to find a coin show in your area. Also, check out as many coin stores too. Some may have piles of them and cheap.

If he's interested in cents in general, perhaps try roll hunting through boxes of cents. Indian heads are rather rare in rolls, but you should find several wheat cents per box.
